Default lug nuts

So, I work at an inner-city hospital and we've had some vandalism in the parking lot lately. Some a-hole tried to steal my spare and scratched up the rim and ruined two of the lug nuts in the process (shredded the covers). I've seen the sets for sale, anyone know where I can just get a couple?

Thanks man, didn't see the singles for sale.

At least they didn't get the wheel off. Nothing pisses me off more than someone messing with another man's vehicle.

Make sure if you get some that you get the lug nuts for the spare wheel, not the regular ones, there is a difference.

Mike, what's the difference. The 3 holding the spare on look identical to those on the wheels.

Two diferent ones available. Best to give them a call and double check. They will know which is which.

If you look closely, you will see a dimple on the top of the lug nuts from the spare, and not on the standard lug nut.
If you use a standard lug nut on a spare tire carrier the threads are slightly different and can strip your studs.

I think I remember also seeing a keylock for the spare at the rover parts web site.
You may want to consider a locking lug nut on your spare if you think you may have trouble in the future.
